It's almost Spooky Day! While putting the finishing touches on your costume remember that colored contacts should only be prescribed by a certified Optometrist or Ophthalmologist and contacts should not be purchased without the proper training. Colored contacts from unreputable sellers can contain dyes and possible contaminates which can lead to eye infections and/or serious harm.

October is and Month! The American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Ocular Trauma found that most people believe that eye injuries occur on the job, at construction sites and factories. But, nearly half of all eye injuries occur in your home. Simple projects like yard work, cooking and cleaning cause more than 40% of eye injuries.

On the last day of we present a list of our favorite tips and tricks to avoid the dreaded dry eyes! Call the office if these solutions don't give you relief!

Lubricating drops : We recommend using Systane or Refresh, especially the preservative free variety which can be used as many times a day as you feel is needed. Most patients use these drops 4-6 times daily. We sell the preservative free Systane in the office for $20.00.
* We DO NOT recommend using any with the term "Red eye relief" as they are known to dry the eye out more and cause more redness in the long run.

Dry Eye Mask : We have a dry eye mask in office made by OcuSoft which can be purchased for $25.00. It can be heated in the microwave for 20 seconds and worn for 10-15 minutes until it cools down. This mask is used to open up the Meibomian glands, helping your eyes naturally lubricate. (See how it can be used to help allergies below).

Fish Oil / Omega-3's : Many cheap fish oils don't have enough or any EPA or DHA which are the main ingredients that promote healthy eyes. The human body needs 2,000mg of omega-3 and most people have under 1,000mg.
We have a bottle of 120 soft gels in office that we offer for $37.50. Ours are made to match the natural make up of those found in nature without the extra fishy taste of a lot of the brands out there. More importantly they come with a higher concentration of over 2,000 of combined EPA and DHA than the leading brands.
